  Hi Kumar,
  
  Yes indeed you can put DataTables anywhere on a page, including a jQuery UI widget.
  
  The error you are getting there is typically caused by an issue with the table header. Do you have thead defined and a unique TH element for each column? If not, then I'd suggest modifying that. If you do, then perhaps you could post a link showing the problem please?
  
  Regards,
  Allan

  Alan,
  
  It's been a while, but I'm back to playing with datatables.
  
  My table header is disappearing. The height is set to 0px only when I wrap datatables with an accordion. is explicitly defined; 's exist. What does "unique TH element for each column?" mean in your suggestion above?
  
  You can see the problem here under the "Current Issues" accordion segment:

  You need to call fnAdjustColumnSizing() ( $('#sysalerts').dataTable().fnAdjustColumnSizing(); ) once the table is made visible, as shown in this example: http://datatables.net/examples/api/tabs_and_scrolling.html
  
  It's worth starting a new thread for questions like this rather than pulling up one from well of a year ago btw :-)

  I forgot to do this after the table was visible. Thanks, Alan!
